I Ain't Living Long Like This |
| I look for trouble and I found it son |
| Straight down the barrel of a lawman’s gun |
| I tried to run but I don’t think I can |
| He said one move and you’re a dead man friend |
| You ain’t living long like this |
| I can’t live at all like this, can I baby? |
| He slipped the handcuffs on behind my back |
| He left me hanging against a cold steel rack |
| You ain’t living long like this |
| Grew up in Houston off the wayside drives |
| Son of a carhop and some all night dives |
| Daddy drove a stock car to an early death |
| He said remember son in his dying breath |
| You ain’t living long like this |
| You can’t live at all like this, oh no baby |
| You know the story 'bout the wheel go 'round |
| Don’t let them take you there all down town |
| Ain’t living long like this |
| I live for Angel she’s a roadhouse queen |
| Make Texas Ruby look like Sandra Dee |
| I want to love her but I don’t know how |
| I’m at the bottle and I’m stumbling here |
| I’m in the jailhouse now |
| I ain’t living long like this, oh no baby |
| You know the story about the jailhouse rock |
| Well go on and do it, don’t get caught |
| You ain’t living long like this, oh no baby |
| Go on and do it but don’t get caught |
| Cause there all in the jailhouse now |
